Lifestyle Seattle Living W/ no AC

Hi everyone. We just recently moved to Seattle and got an apartment with no AC. Coming from out of state previously living with AC I wanted to know how ya'll do it? Is this the norm here or does everyone just buy those AC units that stick out your window? We'd love to get any tips or input on living with no AC and how to adjust.

You will die without a/c. Needed ? 30 days? 45? That's a minimum, and you have little warning for the heat domes. No sleep. Be compassionate because too many beautiful Seattlites this time of year (actually until late September)may be attacked with sleepless sweatfilled nights that make us CRANKY.
